Ionizers got bad rap years ago. Can you turn this one off? And does it still clean and make air smell good? I cannot use perfume.

Yes, you can turn off the ionizer. In fact, I don't use it. The air winds up smelling like clean air, not like some awful air freshener spray. I use the heavy-duty charcoal filters, which are especially good at removing smoke and odors. They cost more, but I think they are worth the price for people who are sensitive or allergic.

Yes, you can turn the ionizer off if you choose. I use the ionizer so don't know how it works without it.

Yes, you can turn the ionizers off, but I never have so I don't know what the air would smell like. Most perfume's I can't be around either.

You can turn the ionizers off. The big filters are what makes this legit. I'm not sure about the smell good of the air, as I use it for alergies and small particulates in the air which it works well on. If you are going to try one of these pro and expensive filters in a small room, I'd recommend it. I bought a 2nd one for my office... I run it on med 2 out of 4, blowing a gentle clean breeze on me a few feet from my desk. I also sleep with one a few feet from my bed.

Yes, this has four speeds. You can turn it on and off. I usually run the one where the animals are on top speed but too loud for TV. When I watch TV, I have to turn it down to one or two. At the lower speeds, it is not heard. I don't turn mine off (unless the electric goes off). We can not use perfume either and have family members with suppressed immune system. We all have noticed the difference. I would recommend this one. I had the same concerns about them too.

We love ours. Yes, you can turn it off. It does clean the air and there is no smell.

It only has a plastic air filter that is "ionized" (think static electricity) to attract/remove particulates from the air. Neither unit really "purifies" the air.

Yes, I bought it specifically for my moms house. She quit smoking in the house and cleaned everything but it still smelled. This Kendal Ozone Ionizer worked great. The house has no smoke odor at all.

ionizers generally will create ozone, I would avoid using it, I make sure its always off. How much ozone it makes i'm not sure, but any amount is not good, especially if it is in a room long term making ever so steadily small amounts, you get where i'm going with this. So yea, don't use the ionizer, not sure why people would say it doesn't make ozone, that's what ionizers do - ozone is a by product of it. How much ozone it makes not sure, but best to have zero.

It has an ionizer, but you can choose to use it or not. I'd have to check again, but it seems like it said that it doesn't ionize the air. When I turn on the ionizer, I do not notice any effects as from ionization. I have COPD and Apnea, and ionized air, is supposed to cause problems with those things.

Ionizers typically have a byproduct of ozone which is harmful to your lungs.

What you're smelling might be ionized air. It has a odd smell that you'll get used right away. Then again it could be plastic and you might have a problem so I'm not sure if you're satisfied with my response. The ionized air smell is a good thing If that is in fact what the smell is

I just love my Edenpure G7 . I have asthma and the clean ionized air has been a life saver for me. When I get up in the morning I start the ionizer and throughout the day I use the sanitizer and purifier . It is a wonderful air cleaner for summer and winter when the heater is blowing. I highly recommend it to anyone, try it!

this is a small ionizer Over time you will notice that you are dusting less and the air smells fresher if it is placed in a small room If you are using lower price litter (not. Fresh step) the Oder would linger for quite a while You would get better results from an ionizer also had a fan and filter Personally Ito have these small ionizers in most room in my house

If you are talking about the odor from some of the earlier ionizer air cleaners we have not noticed this with the uv light

Oh yes, the ionizer can be shut off by turning off the UV light with one push of a button.

If by that you mean can you detect an ozone oder; no, you can't. I love this unit. It has a mind of its own , but it's never interruptive. Mine is set on automatic, and when it decides the air needs cleaning, it advances to a higher setting... Still quiet as a whisper. Greatest air cleaner on the market. If the negative ion setting bothers you intellectually, you can turn that feature off.

Mary? I've had my EDV4000 since April 27th, and it has run pretty much 24-7. When you first turn on the ionizer, yes, there is a little but it isn't horrible at all, and I've had mine on the ionizer all of the time it has been running. Also, this feature can be turned off. It's quiet, as well, even on the high speed setting it's quite tolerable. I hope this answer helps you and if you have anymore questions, feel free to write me at Raydeman@aol.com Thanks and have an awesome summer

Works very well on pet odors even when using a low purify setting, and ionizer will help in getting rid of the pet dander, and help with the allergies. Have used this model with pets for over 7 years, very effective even when run for short periods of time throughout the day.

It is a true HEPA filter. Mine has a separate button for the ionizer but I've never used it. Purportedly ionizers emit ozone but this shouldn't be a problem if you don't activate the ionizer. I'm pretty happy with mine - it's been running 24/7 for about a year.

Yes, the plasma generator can be turned off. I have six units throughout the house and cannot sense a difference with it on or off as far as having a physical response. I leave it on all the time because of how well the ions remove smoke. Keep in mind, that it doesn't generate ozone.

Yes, there is a separate button for the ion option so you can turn it off with the the lamp on. I did not think there was a "plastic" smell and I prefer to have the ion on myself.
